I am most likely like most of the others in here too! I got LOOOOOOTS of anime and haven't even watched half of them... I still have about 5-6TB of anime on my HDDs which I plan to watch eventually but I sometimes can't get myself motivated to start a show!

Guess I am basically too old to watch anime, but I started to watch anime when I was around 6 years old (Captain Future / not knowing what anime was 1985) and I just kept it up the past 25 years, so most likely I am now watching anime longer than most people are old in here ^^

As for what I kinda find a pity that I can't add the Hentai I have seen aswell ;) Since I have almost every hentai that was ever released in English :D And I like to explain to people that some of their favourite shows were originally Hentai-games or eroge!!!

So watch out since some of the thoughts in my mind are defenitly R-Rated ;)

Btw my avatar is actually a picture of me a friend has drawn. It shows my nickname (Greenleaves floating around me) ;)

you wrote you had met many people and some of them very very precious..no lovestory?..nvm..^_^

still, it's great to have otaku friends..I know few people who like anime but completely different genre..except this community I don't have anyone to discuss anime I watch etc..and my bf. doesn't know english, so he only watches anime with czech subtitles and still very rarely..I intend to visit a festival of anime which takes place in our city next year..

I like anime that make me laugh too, for example, I liked the series Rurouni Kenshin much more than both ovas which made me only depressed..(and most people love the first ova more)

As for stuff like NGE and Ghibli..I like it very much..I am sorry to oppose you, but I like anime which contain some message about human behaviour, about our possible future, anime based on legends..it's up to you if you believe it or not (if you just take it as a way to make money)..I think it's a popular and amusing way to learn about interesting thoughts..Recently, I've seen Rahxephon - about special beings (Mu) who can make divine sound..when searching internet I found out they it was really based on maya legends about lost continent Mu..even the year when Mu started to appear on Earth reffers to the end of maya calendar - 2012..according to maya tradition, the world should disappear and a new cycle should begin..I am interested in legends and mythology..

It depends, sometimes I want to see something philosophical and really want to think about it, sometimes I just want to relax with romance, interesting plot and nice anime guys^_^ (I love anime when a girl is surrounded by several guys, falls in love with one of them - fushigi yugi, pretear, saiunkoku etc - bishounen)

great anime history..and you have even met otaku girlfriend?..lovely ^_^

as for Shingetsutan Tsukihime - I'll give it another try..but I have to DL it again..

What genre of anime do you like? Your top 5 anime seem to be various genres..I personally search mainly for anime similar to my top 5, but the more I watch anime, the more I know that these are the best for me..I like the same style as Estuko..almost every anime she recommended to me was great..I see you liked Ayashi no Ceres and Fushigi Yugi, so I think we may have something in common too..^_^
